Testimonies of Collateral Damage
by Megan's Law
 
 
How Megan's Law has subjected registrants/families to abuse

We have gathered hundreds of testimonials from former offenders and their families who face harassment, discrimination, violence and threats in their daily lives. These personal testimonials serve to remind us, the public, and politicians that Megan's Laws create many more victims, and actually destroy lives - many former offenders have families and children who suffer because of the stigma and ostracization.

Please take a moment to read a testimonial or two, as they may offer insight into what sentence society has imposed on those who have already served their time and their families.
